Maybe a little too much lipstick but otherwise looking good today.
 
Holy fuck work is slow today.  This is going to be a LONG Friday.  I have received about 5 emails/calls all day and normally have 100 by now.  My last email received was around 8am.  Where the hell did everyone go?

Glad I kept the Vita in the car so I can sneak out for a while and play some Resistance.

I wish I had your Friday. I have to be at a work event for most of the afternoon. :wall:

 
Glad it's Friday. I booted up Uncharted 3 last night to play it in 3D, got to the point where it asked me to update the game. I ran it and then immediately had other shit to do and didn't get to play it. fuck. 

 
This is the song that popped in my head for Equistinas post. Damn the 80's are making a comeback in this thread.

Dying Light. Are you guys getting this game? It looks pretty damn cool, but isnt Techland the same dev that made Dead Island?
Click to expand...
I'm probably going to get it. Maybe Munky too. Hopefully a few people get it so I have some people to play with. But I like to play through new games fast and trade them back in, which is what I'm sure I'll be doing with this one. Not like one-day fast, but I'll probably want to play it every night til I beat it. So if you wanted to join in that that would be cool. I'm not sure munky can handle that anymore cuz he and all those idiots are so in love with Destiny they can't pull themselves away.

Escape Dead Island update. Shitty game is shitty. It hard froze 3 times and cut scenes went to black and I had to restart 2 times and audio cut out once. Shitty game money grab. They didn't do next gen cuz they would be embarassed, this is sad for ps3 standards. I have a problem with wanting to finish shitty games tho, aka inversion/quantum theory. I'm not gonna plat it because there is like 150+ collectibles and no map or way to 'find' them without a guide, and im not messing with that. but yeah horrible game, don't play it.

(also had 2 funny texts. I didn't feel like doing anything last night cuz I have stuff to do all day and wanted to finish that shitty game but some couple texted me if i wanted to drink/play/dvp party, and then an hour later my buddy texted me saying he got kicked out and needed a place to stay for the night. I didn't reply to either cuz I was busy playing bad video games, lol.)

Went back and finished up the plat for Burnout Paradise!  First of 2014 2015.  Going to see if I can make it to 50 by the end of this year. 

Edit - Year late and 26 platinums short

As Vig said, they are the same guys. Though I don't know how you couldn't tell since the moment to moment gameplay looks identical to Dead Island. I have it preordered because it will be a free rental/profit from Best Buy, but I'm hoping they right a lot of the wrongs of DI (which is still fun in a mindless kind of way).

I am just hoping the dudes that take their girlfriends there do not live with her. Otherwise, this may happen later that night.

Ah yeah, love that subtle racism.

Somewhat related, any of you ever seen that Freakenomics movie? The subjects are interesting but they didn't go into near enough details and data. I shut it off about half way through. Maybe the book has those sweet statistics I'm looking for.

I watched it a while back. I never read the book though, so I'm not sure how in depth the stats are. The only topic I kinda remember was the one about how smarter/more fiscally responsible people tend to have less children and all that good stuff.

It started when I was 7. I was still on cartoons. The only non-Nickelodean show I recall watching back then that wasn't a cartoon was Saved By The Bell. I basically stopped watching TV after that. Didn't get back into it until 2005. I was working at Holywood Video at the time and started watching the DVDs of Monk and Dead Like Me, which got me back into television shows. :D/ I never really went back to watch all the stuff I missed, though.

Hmm I didn't even see that part. Only parts I saw were about people's names and how they are associated with race/economic status/success/etc. and then a part bout sumo wrestlers cheating. Then I fell asleep and when I woke up I shut it off.

Balkie Bartokomous has to be one of the best TV characters of all time.

Or maybe just the 80s.

So I had to set up a bunch of test accounts last year at work and make them all friends. I named them all after sitcom characters of the 80s & 90s. Balki is by far my favorite.

jesus that picture is huge...spoilered

Cool. Errant Signal did a GTA V video. He's the best reviewer I'm aware of and I've been looking forward to GTA V, so it's good to see:

No way Balki would be friends with that Clarissa bitch. She was so fucking annoying.

Only logical explanation for her to be on his friends list is he was hitting it.

Wait a min... how old was she when she did that show? Great...so either Balki has terrible taste in friends or he's a pedophile. Thanks for ruining a piece of my childhood Zimm... Target shopping Balki sucks.

Relax...remember she turned out to be a teenage witch, so she's at least 108 years old.

I was skimming the movie, to see if I was remembering correctly, must be a different documentary that touches on the smarter/more fiscally sound people having less kids topic. But they do talk about abortion vs. crime rates in freakonomics. That's probably the most "interesting" segment.

I always love other nerd stories about how they use things from their past to come up with things they need on their job. I have a ton of them from things as small as a username/pw pair being scoobydoo/scoobysnack for an pre-release device to servers being named after the 3 stooges.

The best one is when a group of us had to do early work on a protocol that needed handshaking between a bunch of devices where you needed a global transaction ID of sorts. There was not enough stuff in place for the servers that should hand out that number to be available yet, but we had to work on the piece on the access side and couldnt wait. We came up with a hardcoded number that would always authenticated. That method became so widely used for so long that there are still people at Comcast who refer to it as Jenny DQoS. Can you guess what the number was?

867-5309

Good luck getting that song out of your head now :)
